分析 本文講述的是美國的失業(yè)率很高,很多人轉(zhuǎn)向網(wǎng)上求職,有效地解決這一問題,但為了更好的實(shí)現(xiàn)自己的價值,還得定期的進(jìn)行更換工作.

解答 46.A 細(xì)節(jié)理解題.根據(jù)第二段的"At the height of the depression(蕭條),when U.S.unemployment peaked at 10 percent,just a little more than two million jobs were being posted each month."可知在經(jīng)濟(jì)最蕭條時,失業(yè)率達(dá)到百分之十,故選A項.
47.C 細(xì)節(jié)理解題.根據(jù)第一段的"But for job seekers,especially those with college educations,researchers say finding a job can be as easy as logging on to a computer"可知研究者發(fā)現(xiàn)在網(wǎng)上找工作更容易些,故選C項.
48.B 細(xì)節(jié)理解題.根據(jù)第四段的"But she says finding the perfect job online takes a lot of perseverance她說在網(wǎng)上找上理想的工作需要很大的毅力",可知答案選B項.
49.D 細(xì)節(jié)推斷題.根據(jù)最后一段的"But for maximum income and satisfaction,workers must be prepared to move and change jobs at least every five years為了達(dá)到好的薪水和滿意,就必須每五年換下工作",可知答案選D項.
50.A 標(biāo)題判斷題.根據(jù)第一段的"A new report says,for college graduates,looking for a job is getting easier.More than 80 percent of the jobs are available online."可知大學(xué)畢業(yè)生找工作變得更容易.超過百分之80的工作崗位都可以在線找到.根據(jù)文章的第三段"That's great news for Hamilton.Only once has he ever applied in person for a job at a shopping mall.He said,"I think my generation-the idea of going door to door,out knocking and saying,hey are you hiring?-like that-doesn't exist anymore…those days are gone,Just go online.''可知"這對漢密爾頓來說是個好消息,他曾經(jīng)在一家商場里應(yīng)聘過一次,他說:"我想我這一代人的想法是挨家挨戶,敲敲門,說,嘿,你在招人嗎?-那樣的話已經(jīng)不存在了…那些日子已經(jīng)過去了,只要上網(wǎng)就行了."因此本文主要講述了在線找工作的好處,故答案選A.

點(diǎn)評 政治類文章多采用記敘文形式,我們可采取"順讀法",以便抓關(guān)鍵語句,領(lǐng)會文章主旨;而經(jīng)濟(jì)類文章則多采用說明文形式,我們則可以采取"逆讀法",先讀試題,再從文章中查找有用信息.

My earliest memories of my father are of a tall,handsome successful man devoted to his work and family,but uncomfortable with his children.As a child I loved him; as a school girl and young adult I feared him and felt bitter about him.He seemed unhappy with me unless I got straight A's and unhappy with my boyfriends if their fathers were not as"successful"as he was.Whenever I went out with him on weekends,I used to struggle to think up things to say,feeling on guard.

14.A policeman was questioning 3 blondes who were training to become detectives.To test their skills in recognizing a suspect,he shows the first blonde a picture for 5 seconds and then hides it.
"This is your suspect,how would you recognize him?"
The first blonde answers,"That's easy.We'll catch him fast because he only has one eye!"
The policeman says,"Well…Uh…that's because the picture shows his profile."Slightly  confused  by  this  ridiculous response,he flashes the picture for 5 seconds at the
second blonde and asks her,"This is your suspect,how would you recognize him?"
The second blonde giggles,flips her hair and says,"Ha!He'd be too easy to catch because heonly has one ear!"
The policeman angrily responds,"What's the matter with you two?Of course only one eye and one ear are showing because it's a picture of his profile!!Is that the best answer you can come up with?"
Extremely frustrated at this point,he shows the picture to the third blonde and in a very testy voice asks"This is your suspect,how would you recognize him?"He quickly adds,"Think hard
before giving me a stupid answer."
The blonde looks at the picture intently for a moment and says,"Hmmmm…the suspect wears contact lenses(隱形眼鏡)."
The policeman is surprised and speechless because he really doesn't know himself if the
suspect  wears contacts or not."Well,that's an interesting answer…wait here for a few minutes
while I check his file and I'll get back to you on that."He  leaves the room and goes to his office,checks the suspect's file in his computer,and comes back with a beaming smile on his face.
"Wow!I can't believe it…it's TRUE!The suspect does in fact wear contact lenses.Good work!How were you able to make such an acute observation?"
"That's easy,"the blonde replied."He can't wear regular glasses because he only has one eye and one ear."

24.Why did the policeman show a picture to the three blondes?D
A.to train them as qualified police officers.
B.to show the skills in recognizing a suspect.
C.to inquire about their relationship with the suspect.
D.to test their potential of being detectives.
25.what's the policeman's attitude towards the first blonde's answer?B
A.embarrassed.  B.puzzled.  C.a(chǎn)ngry.  D.satisfied.
26.What did the second blonde think of the task?D
A.ridiculous.  B.confusing.  C.demanding.  D.easy.
27.How did the third blonde know that the suspect wore contact lenses?C

8.WASHINGTON-A  chaotic scene unfolded near the U.S.Capitol(美國國會大廈)on Wednesday after police shot and killed an armed man in what authorities described as a rush hour traffic stop that turned deadly.
U S.Capitol Police spokeswoman Sgt.Kim Schneider said the unidentified 35-year-old man sped away in a white car after being stopped a few blocks from the Capitol.The man drove the wrong way down a street and crashed into a police car in a heavily guarded area about a block north of the Capitol grounds,striking two officers with his car along the way,she said.
Police then opened fire after seeing the man hold up his handgun and refuse to put it down,said Schneider,who described the melee(人群)as"very fast moving"."The officers felt they were being threatened-they were in fear for their lives,"Schneider said.
She did not know if the man ever fired at police.He was taken to a hospital,where he was pronounced dead.
The officers who were hit--one of whom was on a motorcycle--had minor injuries,Schneider said.

"There were so many gunshots being fired,my family got down."said Robert Drumm of Oklahoma,who was touring the nation's capital with his family.
Numerous emergency vehicles came together quickly on the area.
Lanigan's husband,Dale Lanigan,described a similar scene,saying that as the car sped past him the driver had one hand on the wheel and it looked like he was reaching for something.

72.What can be learned from the passage?C
A.The shooting had something to do with the Capitol.
B.Three police officers were hurt in the shooting.
C.The gunshot case had nothing to do with the Capitol.
